I think it's better to avoid the Fork button in this case, because forks are treated specially in the Github UI. In this case you'll want your repo to appear as a main repo, and not a fork. AFAIK the only way to unfork a repo is to ask the Github staff to do it. So instead of forking, use the "+" button on github.com and select "Import a repository". This supports both git and svn repos. Best, Lionel ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
